Most satellite navigation devices are bulky and not stylish to look at, at all. But, the new Garmin Oregon 500 is not. In fact this navigation looks like a touchscreen cell phone. But aside from its style, the Garmin Oregon is also designed to be tough and durable. Well, it should be since it is intended for outdoor use. It is designed with a waterproof casing and rubberized finish. This crush-resistant shell is so tough that you can take it with you wherever you go and in whatever kind of weather you may be in.

The predominant feature if the Garmin Oregon 500 is its 3-inch touchscreen display. Through the screen, you’ll easily see the applications like the preloaded topographic maps and 3D map view so that you won’t get lost along the tracks. Camera, high-sensitivity receiver, barometric altimeter, electronic compass, microSD card slot, and picture viewer are also some features that the Garmin Oregon 500 comes with.

Powering it up is the latest SiRFstar III GPS chipset that can connect to any of the 24 satellites circling the world.
